Extended Data Fig. 5

a, 3D distribution of the atoms with a normalized BOO parameter ≥0.5, revealing that 15.46% of the total atoms form crystal nuclei in the nanoparticle. b, Normalized partial coordination numbers of type-1, -2 and -3 atoms. c, 3D distribution of the 2,682 solute centres (red dots) that are between the first (3.78 Å) and the second (6.09 Å) minimum of the PDF curve (Fig. 1g). d, Ten most abundant Voronoi polyhedra of the solute-centre clusters.
